How to create a wire-frame 3D cube in a-frame?

I am struggling with creating a wire-frame for a box primitive. Tried color, opacity and transparent attributes but none seems to work. Here is the code - 

<a-entity geometry="primitive: box; width: 1; height: 1; depth: 1" position="0 1 0" material="color: #0000FF; opacity: 0.5;" rotation="0 0 120"></a-entity>

Need to render something like this -

Solution

  • You'll want to check out the THREE.Material docs a bit for this one, as A-Frame can't expose every option. Here's an example component, using the wireframe option:

     AFRAME.registerComponent('wireframe', {
   dependencies: ['material'],
   init: function () {
     this.el.components.material.material.wireframe = true;
   }
 });

     <a-entity geometry="primitive: box" material="color: blue" wireframe></a-entity>
